All Chapters of Alpha's Rejection: My Mate Has A Son: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Alaric's POVI had watched Adrian for days, trying to convince myself otherwise, that he wasn't my son. He might have looked like Samantha, but his eyes were unmistakably like mine. That combination of Icey blue and emerald green was not something that was commonly seen. I had called Arcana Hills to confirm about one of their students, Julian, and it felt ridiculous to ask about Julian's eye color. Arcana Hills was independent of our pack, meaning we didn't own the academy, so they were not mandated to release information about their students.In fact, Arcana was one place that cherished guarding information even the little details. It didn't matter who you were. Even though Samantha was being sponsored to the academy by us, we didn't know a damn thing about her except the things they wanted us to know.I mean, they didn't even tell us she had a son. The only thing we knew about her was her exploits in the medical field and how she had brought a cure to a disease that plagued a pack

Samantha's POVI tried not to panic; this was a matter that needed quick action."Adrian, can you give us a few minutes? I need to speak with Alpha Alaric. Is that okay with you?" I asked, and despite the worry on his face, he nodded. I looked at Dr. Adams and smiled at him. Adrian turned to follow him but returned just to grab my hair and kiss me on the forehead."I love you, Mommy, please be fine." I looked at him with teary eyes until he left with Doctor Adams. Once they were gone, I wiped my eyes of tears and turned to look at Alaric, who seemed to have been lost watching me."You must feel so lucky to have him as your son. I can see he loves you very much," he said, and I nodded, smiling as well. My heart was filled with pride for Adrian."You're right, Adrian is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I can't imagine my life without him, and for that, I can't thank you enough for saving him," I said. I was sincerely grateful to Ric. I wasn't sure he fully understood the mag

Alaric's POVThe last time we captured rogues, they ripped their hearts out with their claws instead of telling us what we needed to know. They were loyal to their so-called master, but why exactly? Rogues weren't known for being loyal; they always fought for their selfish interests, and that's why no one trusted them. But these ones were different.With poisonous bites that infected other werewolves, and loyal.We got to the dungeons, and the thick metal gates opened. We went down the stairs and walked the corridor until we got to the cells that held each rogue. I paused as the guard opened the cell gate while Kayson and I entered. I looked closely, and a wave of shock hit me. I looked at Kayson, who seemed surprised too."What's wrong with him?" I asked, and Kayson shook his head. "Why are his eyes completely black and bleeding?" The rogue before us had black blood dripping slowly from his eyes. I had never seen anything like it. "I have no idea myself, Alpha. When they brought him

Alaric's POV"I wouldn't want to bother Lily," I defended."You're not bothering me, Alaric. Besides, we can get to spend more time together. I've missed you," Lily said, and I paused as I stared at her, almost like she had said something she wasn't supposed to say. She withdrew her gaze from me, and I blinked away the hardness. I was riled up for a moment there."You heard that. Your fiancée misses you, and I'm starting to feel the disconnect from you two. You need to spend time together," Mum pressed further. She was really taking up this matter seriously, and I was starting to get stressed about it."You know I can't afford that right now," I said, hoping for her to reason with me."You need a break from all the work, Alaric." I was wrong; Mum was thinking anticlockwise. She couldn't reason with me."I don't need one, not until I'm certain this pack is completely safe," I said, frustrated at her misunderstanding. She was talking like one who didn't know how dire the situation of th

Alaric's POV"Sure," I said, and saw how awkward the entire situation felt. A new wave of feeling crashed over me. I felt embarrassed that I had indeed walked past the seat Adams took out for me because I was so lost in my admiration for Samantha. Yet, without shame, I took my seat but turned it to face Samantha.Strangely, she wasn't moving and just stared at me with the same kind of look she did when we were teenagers—like I was still that young boy she was always excited to see. Her eyes showed some sort of passion in them.I blinked several times to be certain that my curiosity wasn't making me see false things and misinterpret her expression."Dr. Samantha?" Adams called, startling her. It was so obvious that she had been lost."Yes," she answered hastily."Are you just going to stand there all day?""I was on my way already," she said and left without a single glance at me, but her shoulders were a bit hiked, like she was tensed. Or was I overanalyzing everything?"What's the pr
